### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very complete

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent introduction to computer science using Python 3.6
*by J***N on October 19, 2018*

I am one of those people who believe everyone should know how to code. If you learn how to code, you also learn some of what has become known as “computer science”. This excellent teaching text begins with an explanation for the author’s choice of Python as their teaching language. Within a very few pages, the student is learning what programming is, what a program does and straight into the basics of programming with Python. This is not a comprehensive soup-to-nuts treatment of programming with Python. Rather, it is more intent on teaching the underlying concepts of computer science. So we begin with designing and using functions, then working with text, making choices the use of Python modules and so on. In all, 17 chapters walk you through the bedrock elements of computer science and programming with Python. The intent is not so much teaching a person how to become competent as a Python programmer, but rather instructing the student in the principles of computer science. It succeeds, I think. The language is very clear, with subjects being introduced on a step-by-step basis. I think this succeeds as a classroom text and also as a platform for self-study. Jerry
